Trying to build a balanced gaming PC around AMD Phenom II X3 720 Heka 2.8 processor. Need advise on which MB, RAM, and cooler to get. Limited budget but can do with this processor.
has all the features including newest chipset, usb 3.0, and sata 6gb/s - only thing it doesnt have is Crossfire - but save $100 bucks and still able to overclock
Ram, check out hte OCZ special ops 4gb on newegg... $65 after rebate for 4gb
Stock cooler will be fine for stock clocks. If you want to overclock, i'd reccomend the coolermaster v8 - i used to reccomend the hyper 212+ when it was $30, but demand has driven it up to $50 - can get the V8 for 50 as well and its more hardcore ( just make sure your case is at least 8inches wide and it will fit
